Re: Debian installation issues

As Tomas and Michael have suggested, you might have a look at your BIOS/UEFI setup in order to verify the boot order and to disable Secure Boot: disabling Fast Boot has nothing to do witrh Secure Boot and Debian cannot manage Secure Boot without special procedures It is worth noting that the Deb

Re: Connection to ubcsecure.

I cannot help you with wvdial, I have used this rarely looong ago for simple dial-up (no 3G/4G). NetworkManager itself (not its applet) does not depend upon any GUI part and nmcli (command line) and nmtui (ncurses text interface, roughly equivalent to nm-applet) are included in the package. Networ

Re: Black screen after "UEFI Installer menu"

a possible cause of your problem could be a need for a firmware, probably for the graphic card, that is not included (proprietary) in the installer. so you could either: - install with the text-mode installer a text-only environment. reboot, then install needed firmwares, then install a graphic en
